and i think that thomas friedman eloquently captured the significance of this moment when he asked, "what if the crisis of 2008 represents something more fundamental than a deep recession? what if is really is telling us that the whole growth model we created over the last 50 years is simply unsustainable economically and that 2008 was the year we hit the wall?" i think he was absolutely right. i don't the world is ever going to look like it did before september 2008. we have crossed a divide. we are bumping up against our fiscal limits and against the limits of our national environment. and the challenge here is to readjust to this new reality, not to try to go back and turn to the past, which at least in the case of our health care system, was not serving us very well before 2008 in any event. and therein lies the opportunity. the ability to readjust to the new reality rather than trying to create a world that no longer exists. i am going to return to that in a moment. states, following the 2008 recession, were particularly hard hit because states, unlike the federal government, can
